Firefox

Post by dagnele777 »

I try to run Windows Mozilla Firefox under Wine (I've Debian Etch on AMD 64 Linux).
It runs, but doesn't go browse any website, telling me always "page not found", like it were not connected. But I'm connected, as well as I can post this message. Is there any wine (or Firefox) setting that I don't take into account?
Please help me; I need it because I can't run flash player on linux browser, as it's 64-bit and flash doesn't support it yet.
Thanks

You can get the linux 32 bit firefox version and run that for flash stuff, I
actually made that my default browser in my 64 system, you can also try
flock I also run that in my 64 bit system and runs well, Alsooooo, in ubuntu
there's a way to install the 32 bit plugin with a wrapper, might work on
debian, check, ubuntuforums.org for details on that, there was a script that
actually installs it in a 64 bit system, check this post
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php? ... tall+flash as I
say it MIGHT work on debian too, check it out.

good luck

Strange it works perfectly here. Could you try connecting by IP-address? If that works then you most likely missing 32-bit libresolv.
